Women tend to normally be more comfortable with supporting gay guys in the Music Industry I think.

well this will be news to Elton John where i would estimate 96% of all his music sales came from hetro people

Alot of them at the time were seen more as gay icons than accessable to straight people, it's changed alot for those artists nowadays, but at the time some of them were not necessarily loved by straight people.

And my main point anyway is that gay singers will struggle to sell Music because gay people and straight people on average do tend to have different taste in Music to each other. Anyway I feel that gay actors suffer more prejudice than gay singers, alot of gay actors have to pretend to be straight just to have a career in the TV or Movie world.
